Thank you, Wade. The license however is bound to the private IP 192.168.x.x
so I guess we don't have to go through the license manager.

Thank so much!

Hi Robert

        Check which IP your Checkpoint License is registered to -- if it's
tied to the public address you will need to go through the License Center
and update to a new IP, then install the license file on the firewall after
your change.  Otherwise when you change the IP and restart the firewall
you'll get a message saying you don't have a valid license for that box.

        Not sure how the Alteon works.  You may need to change the IP at the
OS level and also in the Firewall object in your ruleset.  All rules / etc
should run fine after that as far as I know.

Subject: [FW-1] Backup & Disaster Recovery


Hi Guys,

I've been a member here for just a few weeks and I've learned a lot.
Anyway, I need some input from the Checkpoint Experts about backup &
recovery of the Alteon Firewall 5105 running Checkpoint.
I'm going to do an IP changeover later to change the public IP of the
firewall and VPN. Question: If I change the public IP of the firewall, will
it automatically carry over to all the rules I've placed? Do I have to do
anything else besides changing the public IP address? How can I backup my
configuration on to a floppy/FTP/CD? I know this may sound like a newbie
asking, but I've been using iptables/chains for the longest time, and with
those firewall/s, I only have to backup the iptables config file and off I
go.

Any help/input would be greatly appreciated! Thanks guys!
